If the Castle level of Super Mario Bros. sounded like this I might not mute my TV whenever I reached this point in the game. Something about the original castle theme just irritated the hell out of me. That’s probably why it never reached the same iconic level as the other levels themes.
Props to the band Nylithia for the awesome death metal rendition. We really need a mod for this, so developers, get on it.
There has already been a fair share of quips about the video camera on the new 5th generation iPod Nano, most having to deal with the video quality and the positioning of the lens on the device. But what about the fact that it looks nothing like a camera? If you weren’t down with tech blogs, you’d probably not even notice the video feature.
iLuv offers these Nano skins which make the device more closely resemble a camera. This way, you’ll never forget what you can do with it. Grab yours for just short of $25.
Now official on Apple.com. The new iPod Nano features a built-in video/still camera and mic. As well as the addition of VoiceOver, Voice Recorder, FM Radio and a pedometer. Available in a collection of great colors. I believe there are eight colors to choose from.

This amusing animated video by shamoozal takes a comical eye to the process of hooking up the classic NES gaming console. Nintendo might have started a gaming revolution with the NES, but thank the gaming lord that the hook up process has changed some.
Follow the rules in this video and you might just live to play a game or two.
Here is the developer preview of the second circle of hell, Lust, from the upcoming Dante’s Inferno video game by EA. Disturbing, visceral, dark, tormenting and, most importantly, awesome. All words which describe what we can see from the game. The devs decided not to go overly smutty, considering the subject of Lust, though instead delve into the dark torment of the word. The gameplay sort of looks like a cross between God of War and Diablo.
As someone who has always been morbidly intrigued by gore, evil and even Alighieri’s original Inferno story, Dante’s Inferno looks right up my alley. It’s much darker than almost any other game I think I’ve ever seen. It will surely turn-off some, but it just inspires the hell out of me.
Everybody already knows that Chuck Norris is likely the most powerful man in the universe. The Chuck Norris facts illustrate that quite well. Even superheroes like Mario sometimes stand aside to let Chuck Norris do their dirty work.
Watch Chuck blast through an army of Goombas. They never had a chance.
Since we happen to be the number one parkour resource on the interwebz, we couldn’t not (double negative, you like that shit?) post this Carl Erik Rinsch-directed video of an animated CGI robot performing some crazy street jumping, inspired by a NIKE commercial.
Parkour is so badass, even robots are getting into the action.
Apple is slugging along with their newest developer release of iPhone 3.1. Seems like Steve Jobs is running a much tighter ship than maestro Cook. Many of the major issues of 3.0 (which probably wouldn’t of been there in the first place if it were up to El Jobso) have been fixed. Here is a list of improvements dredged up by developers.
Non-destructive video editing means trimming a clip no longer saves over the original video but gives you the option to “Save as copy…” Options for MMS are back on AT&T, but not sending or receiving. Voice Control now works over Bluetooth iPhone vibrates when moving icons Updated AT&T profile to 4.2 Updated modem firmware to 5.08.01 Improvements to OpenGL and Quartz. APIs to allow third party apps to access videos and edit them.
More is sure to come soon. So stay tuned. On that note, what else do you think needs fixing?
